Don't forget the lazy Susan!



When you have kids, it is great to serve healthy meals while also letting them have some freedom to choose and have fun! One way we like to do this in our home is to put all the toppings on a lazy Susan and let the kids do some of their food preparations.

This morning, they had 100% whole grain English muffins served for breakfast with a hard-boiled egg and apple slices. Then the kids were able to choose what to put on their English muffin from the lazy Susan: almond butter, Smart Balance, sliced turkey and ham from the farmer's market, low fat cream cheese, and all-fruit no-sugar-added preserves. The kids really enjoyed it and it took a lot of guess-work away from mom!
